Perfect World

Sorry I didn't like your point of view
Didn't mean to upset you or hurt you
Find it hard to tell those sweet little lies
Always finding fault when I could compromise
I just want a perfect world.

Sorry I don't see life the way you do
If I could I'd be just the same as you
Every day parade the things I feel inside
Not be frightened by the doubt that I can't hide
I just want a perfect world.

Something beautiful preserved
And to take what we've been given's
A trick I've never learned
I just want a perfect world.

So the world falls off around you
You're standing on the edge
Know you'll fall it just hasn't happened yet
And there's no one left to catch you
And even if there were
You're not sure you could repay such a debt.

But I just can't seem to shake
The old pursuits of youth
Simple need to be the seeker after truth.

I just want a perfect world
Dumbest thing you ever heard
But to take what we've been given's
A trick I've never learned.
